DistillAlign Coordinates Mode Covering and Seeking in Video Distillation
July 28, 2026
DistillAlign addresses the decoupling of initialization and distribution matching in autoregressive video distillation. It introduces a distributional evaluation protocol measuring precision and coverage in shared latent space to ensure student models match teacher mode coverage.
